See, girls, here's what I had in mind when I asked the question. I didn't want to put all this in the opening post, so I could get an idea what ya'll's take on it might be. This is an excerpt of a PM I just sent a friend who asked if I was woried about being read...


"I'm not worried actually... I'm thinking that confronting, in a friendly way, those that read us from afar and smile might be a good learning experience for all involved. And if it happens to me, I'd really love to go up and talk to them. Not so much to find out how they read us, but to sorta recruit more accepting members of the public. To see if they can get an idea of our 'normalcy' rather than our freakishness. To see if they can carry away from that meeting the thought that "That was an interesting person really!" rather than "Poor closet fag!" Know what I mean? Kinda like prosyletizing for the cause!"

See what I'm sayin'? But give me your experiences and thoughts!
